Time Purpose of ADME Studies

‹ Dose-Response: Obtain information to help determine the relationship between the concentration of free compound in plasma and the toxicological response. ‹ Risk: Provide data that assists in the design and interpretation of toxicity studies and the determination of risk. Objectives

‹ Develop guidance for the careful, tier- wise collection of PK data that would better define dose across… – species – life stages – route – frequency and duration of exposure Objectives (continued)

‹ Provide recommendations that would help in… – Toxicology study design – Interpretation – Risk Assessment Working through the process… Tox Studies -Time Course “Basic” -Metabolites Tier I - -Saturation Route-Route -Recovery Animal to Human Risk? Worker Safety ADME

‹ The dog is uniquely more sensitive to organic acids like 2,4-D. ‹ Renal studies suggest that the dog has a low capacity to excrete organic acids. ‹ Allometric comparison of the pharmacokinetic parameters: volume distribution (Vd), renal

clearance (Cl) and plasma half-life (t1/2) were conducted across species (including human).

‹ Conclusion: the dog is an outlier. 100 A. 100000 B. Calf Human 10 10000 Pig Human 1000 Calf Human 1 Dog Pig 100 Vd L Rat 0.1 Cl ml hr-1 10 Rat Dog Mice 0.01 Mice 1

Internal Species Mode of Dose Differences Action Example Tier III Study: Human dermal absorption

‹ Dermal is a major exposure route. ‹ In vitro studies can provide an initial estimate of dermal absorption. ‹ In vivo studies with human volunteers can establish extent of dermal absorption. ‹ Direct application for assessing human health risk. Conclusions/Recommendations

‹ To be useful, ADME studies need to:

• Help in the design of toxicity studies. • Help interpret results from toxicity studies. • Help assess risk. Conclusions/Recommendations (continued)

‹ Generalized tiered approach

• Basic (Tier I), which would include data that are crucial for toxicity study design including dose selection, half-life determinations for recovery period determination, and the identification of major metabolites.

• Custom (Tier II), which would include data needed for study interpretation, absorbed dose estimates, and duration/route extrapolations.

• Advanced (Tier III), which would include data to support the understanding of a compound’s mode of action and allow the derivation of pharmacodynamic concordance. ADME Task Force Members Co-Chairs: Hugh Barton (USEPA) and Timothy Pastoor (Syngenta Crop Protection)
